So the Homestuck Pilot came out today. That's pretty swag. I liked how the characters interacted in a visual medium. I love the characterization of Jade. I think Dave is missing that 2009 hipster vibe, but that can be fixed. I liked how the pilot was meta in a way that lends itself to the medium.

One pet peeve I have is how unnatural the cussing sounded. It just felt out of place in some moments, particularly with John, though I suspect this is a quirk of the studio making the pilot rather than anything to do with Homestuck itself.

All in all, I liked it well enough and hope to see more. The new merch looks cool too. I'm definitely getting that LED light for Christmas, no doubt about it. My main hope is that there's a new tarot deck made at some point.

That's all for my thoughts on the pilot so far! I also have some thoughts about the direction of the Homestuck fandom, but I'm going to save that for another day to write about that. So keep an eye out for that post coming soon.
